"The new Wells Hall which takes the place of the one destroyed by fire on February 11, 1905, was ready for occupancy at the opening of the school year in 1907. This building is erected in six compartments or wards, with fire proof walls between, and with an outside entrance for each. Every floor in each ward contains five rooms and a toilet room, making accomoddations in the entire building for 156 students. The attic of each ward is finished in the same manner and will furnish very pleasant quarters for six literary societies. The basement is high and well lighted. It contains a large kitchen with serving rooms, pantries, storage rooms, dining rooms, with a seating capacity for three hundred or more, besides six fine living rooms for the help."[1][2]
